TURN HAIR DARK WITH SAGE TEA If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens So Naturally Nobody Can Tell The old-time mixture ot Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, stw?aked and faded hair is grandmoth er’s recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are liv ing in an age when a youthful appear ance is of the greatest advantage Nowadays, though, we don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the prod uct, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound.” It is very popu lar because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your coqjb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small stfsud at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applica tions," it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.

It is not whole wheat flour, but "is a food after the form of peas and beans, and more potent in its nutritional effect than any cooked food ever before pro duced, because the cooking has'not demineralized nor oxidiz ed its mineral constituents.

No certificate tags will be is sued next spring unless the tubers have been treated before bedding.” The corrosive sublimate (bi-chlo ride) can be purchased from any drug store or secured thru the In spector.
